Chapter 3107
With a sigh of relief, Ellar emerged from the secretary's office just after Emma and Doretta had left.
He had managed to avoid a prolonged conversation with them through a bit of trickery; otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten any work done that day.
Shaking his head, Ellar returned to his office, taking a deep breath to compose himself as he started to catch up on his workload.
He thought to himself, 'Lately, I've had more on my plate, especially with keeping tabs on Everett. Now that Patricia is investigating Everett, could she possibly be in danger?'
Meanwhile, Patricia, having obtained the surveillance footage, returned to the Riddle Corporation.
Lulu was on her way to deliver documents to Nicole's office when she saw Patricia. "You're back. How did it go?" "I just got back. I'm going to check the information I've obtained so far now, " Patricia replied.
"How was Ellar?" Lulu inquired further.
Patricia hesitated before responding, "He's fine." She headed to her own office after answering.
Lulu watched Patricia go, frowning slightly and murmuring to herself, "Did I misread the situation? Why does Patricia seem off?" Shaking her head, Lulu knocked on Nicole's office door.
Once inside, she expressed her concern to Nicole. "Patricia is back, but she seems a bit off. Could it be that there's a significant issue with Everett?
After a brief pause, Nicole replied, "Thank you." "No need forthanks," Zane's voice softened. "If things go smoothly, I should be thanking you."
Their organization aimed to dismantle the Eastern Falcon completely. After the Eastern Falcon cut its losses and went into hiding years ago, there had been no word from them. It was assumed they would no longer cause trouble if they stayed hidden. Unexpectedly, they had re-emerged, targeting Nicole.
Since they refused to stay hidden, he couldn't be allow them to roam free.
"Alright, let's leave it there for now." "Take care," Zane said, ending the call.
Nicole stared at her phone, her gaze intense. She was certain that Everett's return was backed by someone from the Eastern Falcon, but that person remained a mystery, leaving no trail to follow. Perhaps this was an opportunity to delve deeper into the investigation.
